First Contact Physio
- If you have a musculoskeletal problem, you maybe offered an appointment with the MSK FCP, or Musculoskeletal First Contact Practitioner.
- Our FCP’s come from physiotherapy backgrounds with extensive experience in the diagnosis and management of musculoskeletal problems. They are not here to provide a rehabilitation service but can arrange this if required.
- Our FCP’s can give an in depth assessment of your problem. If necessary, they can arrange investigations such as bloods, ultrasound, x-ray and MRI to help aid diagnosis.
- If appropriate, steroid injections can be given by designated staff within the practice and they can also arrange onward referral to orthopaedics or to the rehabilitation physiotherapy team if needed.
- If you have a musculoskeletal problem, you may be offered an appointment with the FCP.
